This can be much smaller than a page on very small memory systems. Always rounding up the size to a page is wasteful in that case, and required alignment is smaller than the memblock default. Let's round things up to a page size only when the actual size is >= page size, and then it makes sense to page-align for a nicer allocation pattern.
